Durex ‘Get it on’ Advert

I supose this advert with the sounds, and the acts, positions and how many balloons are taking part in this event would be shocking to some people who dont talk openly about this subject. Maybe embarrasment would be a factor also. And others would see the humour and light heartend aproach.

Banned condom advert

Both these posters are quite similar these to this banned advert. Blatenly saying use a condom so you don’t end up with a child, Which obviously is showing what the condom does.. however in years back many more people were religious, and this would have offended people. Maybe the advert was banned as it showed regret after not using a condom, which is quite mean. Live with your consequence.. But these durex ones show you how to prevent before actually have a child.

This poster made me laugh. Making Condoms look fun.. ‘wearing a condom is like a game’ Im sure some people out there would have complained this makes the children of today to not take sex seriously!? This image could link to yours ella, getting down with the kids!

This advert was done by mccan- erickson manchester, advertising agency for durex in england. It was relased in january 2002.

Youtube says this was banned how ever i am unsure? the same advertising agency did them another advert in 2007 about ‘the climax delay condom’. And also in 2009 they did another campaign that had lots of complaints.. i found this article….

A advertising campaign for Durex has been cleared by the Advertising Standards Authority following a complaint that the posters were ‘offensive’ and ‘unsuitable for general display’.

It shows how quite alot of there advertising is questioned and how they proberly have found it hard through the years to advertise how they want. But lots of advertising companys have pushed bowndrys to a product across, maybe this is why through the years it has changed as you more has been able to have been said. However in the 80′s when they did show shocking things about aids and sti’s i think this was because they didnt understand the effects as much, so as times gone on they try to create adverts that are telling you information, but they try to push the boundaires to make people listen.

(sorrryyyy i cant spell… and this prob doesnt make much sense cos i bablleee.!)

its 2009, and it is durexs 80th birthday! www.durex.com HAPPY BIRTHDAY DUREX

This isnt to do with safe sex.. however its durex and made me laugh.

This goes with the action man rob found.

This advert was banned, i can understand as i dont really find this funny. Im quessing its trying to portray that men are pigs unless they don’t use a condom?! poor pigs, pigs are cute.

it seems to be some other countries have more of a humor when it comes to these safe sex adds, or maybe people find it harder to ban the ones they dont feel appropriate.
